  1. Just added whoops on his track. This is his first time over whoops:
  2. Some backyard video riding. Sorry for the shaky vid. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=yecXjbie-34
  3. Thank you and appreciate your input. We have the 12.5 and 16''. How do you think this battery would work for the 12.5''? My boy rides the 12.5 at full power everywhere and we would definitly not like less performance. But concidering the lead batterys taper down from beginning to end, do you think the above battery would still perform less then the stock batteries? Our other option is to buy the EathX ETX12A: http://www.earthxmotorsports.com/index.php/page_id/2 There are a few 12.5's out there running EarthX 36v's with no problems without any controller change ect. I know usually there are no "easy" solution", but looking to get about a 1.5-2hr run time on a lithium battery that wont taper down in power in both the 12.5 and 16''. We have done some solid riding on some trails that range from up hills, down hills, single trails, sand, rocks ect and we both get the EXACT run time its pretty perfect. He weighs 40lbs on the 12.5 and im 190lbs on the 16/36v and we get a solid 1hr 15min ride time or about 6.5 miles stop and go ride time. I liked the Earth X batterys because they seem pretty maintanance free and we can just add batterys and share between both bikes. Also I was under the impressions, that all lipos just ran 100% until the cutoff? The guy who had the 4hr run time, I don't know about the performance, but even if they perform to "par" or better then the stock batterys. Very much appreciate your imput.
  4. I heard that someone used this 36v 10ah you posted here with the built in BMS on their 16'' and seemed to get about 4-4.5hrs of run time oin ONE charge. Just wired up this battery and called it a day. I'm personally going to take this leap and give it a shot. Even with just 3hrs of run time that would be outstanding.
  5. Little Fernando riding with the big boys: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ooiWRCZnZo&feature=plcp
  6. I have my 3.5 yr boy on a 12.5. Best thing ever. I bought him a Yamaha PW50 a few months ago, but he as still to small. And the untouchable added benefit of riding when ever and wherever, the Oset is the clear choice. My boy has been riding on a custom track I built for him in my backyard, small backyard, maybe about 25x50 ft. The quick response of the electric bikes gets it going fast and quick around the tight stuff. With just a couple months of backyard practicing, maybe 20min a day prob average every other day, I felt he was ready for the real motocross track. Well to make the long story short, he graduated to the big track at just 3yrs 8months, and can do lap after lap, in some cases beating and keeping up to the bigger kids on 50's 5-7 years of age. The key here, SEAT TIME. Our focus is motocross. My next delima is what bike to get him on next to compete in the motocross world. His skills I feel are good enough to get him on a KTM50 by the time he is about 4-4.5yrs. Actually, its a height problem. These Osets have really opened up major possibilities. After watching these videos I saw last night.... it hit me like a train. race car street bike F1 Dragster http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_ukLgsGEzs&feature=related street http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&feature=endscreen&v=369h-SEBXd8 Build your own electric motocycle Im just going to find a used maybe blown up KTM50, and make it electric. Have him practice the wheels off of it just like his oset,and have another gas one for the races incase they protest it. We can worry about the clutch much later, most of the kids up to about 7ish I think are still riding fully auto KTM's anyways. Sorry for the off subject, but your post frogger made sparked me again on converting a gas motorcycle to electric.
